When I press the submit button I get error.
object not found error.
And the page automatically adds empty entries with auto incremented primary key (without pressing the submit button).
I am still a beginner in PHP, I searched thoroughly but I can't find out what's wrong in code.

When inserting a single row into the MySQL table, the syntax is as follows: INSERT INTO table_name(column_1,column_2,column_3) VALUES (value_1,value_2,value_3); In the INSERT INTO query, you should specify the following information: table_name : A MySQL table to which you want to add a new row.
PHP 5 and later can work with a MySQL database using: MySQLi extension (the "i" stands for improved) PDO (PHP Data Objects)
To add records inside a database table, open the table with phpMyAdmin and click on the Insert tab. Enter the desired data in the corresponding fields and click on Go to store it. You can see the newly inserted record by clicking on the Browse tab.
Try this:
$full_name = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'Name');
$code = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'Code');
$gpa = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'GPA');
The reason why I wrote that is because your input names contain Name, Code and GPA so you need to write this exactly as your input names (case-sensitive).
